Kyoto, Japan｜Kyoto Insider Sake Experience

Amazing sake tasting/class in the Sake District of Kyoto! We did the 1.5 hour option and our instructor, Mayo, was phenomenal. We learned so much in such a short amount of time about how Sake is made, the different types of Sake, appropriate food pairings, and how to understand and order your sake preferences. Would recommend this to anyone with interest in learning more about sake.

This was a fantastic experience and very informative. I learned so much about sake, even how to read the bottles in Japanese! Our guide took the time to walk us through exactly how sake is made, including the various rice used, the polish levels, etc. I got to sample 10 different sakes, including with food and finally got to zero in on which kind of sake I like. I absolutely recommend you check them out when staying in Kyoto.

I became a sake lover during my stay in Japan and wanted to learn more about how it was made and this sake experience was very helpful. We learnt about the making at the brewery and later on sake tasting. Very simple but very informative and effective and our guide was so nice and kind.
